Reviews of this property

Annette and self catering Edinburgh was excellent. A very handy position, very welcoming and helpful advice. Great basics there. Loved the little history books and the flowers. Shower could have more pressure. Very homely.

Annette was a very nice and helpful host with lots of tips to the city. The apartment was very nicely decorated, clean and well equipped (tea, coffee, detergents etc. .. everything was already there). Even a bunch of flowers on the table :). The location of Wohung was pleasant, with the bus outside the front door you can reach the center in less than 10 minutes on foot, it takes only about 20 minutes. Overall, highly recommended, we would book there again!

Annette was at the apartment to meet us and was helpful too. It is a spacious flat and everything was provided and clean. It is well located and Edinburgh is walkable, we walked everywhere, 15 minutes to Holyrood. Very pleased with the stay. It is on the third floor so you do need to walk up some large set of stairs. Plenty of shops and eateries nearby.

We had a great stay in Annette´s flat. It is conveniently located. If you want to use public transport, there is a bus stop (35 bus) in front of the house, which can leave you at the Royal Mile center or even the airport. The High Street in the Royal Mile is about 20-25 minutes walking distance at a slow pace.

The flat is warm and cosy, very clean and tidy and comfortably furnished. You have everything you need in the kitchen, is fully equiped. There are two bedrooms and a sofa bed at the living room, so it is perfect for 6 people. We were provided with linen, towels and pillows.
Annette was very kind, she explained us everything we had to know about the appartment and where we can find a supermarket, etc. She was willing to resolve any doubt at any moment during our stay in Edinburgh, she deserves a 10.
Maybe to say something to be added at the appartment, it would be a hairdryer.
I would advice anyone to stay at Anntte's place, excellent quality-ratio price.

The landlord was helpful and accomodating allowing us early access upon arrival at 1pm and let us stay a little longer on the day of our departure because our flight was late in the afternoon. That deserves 3 stars.

The 1 star is for the appartment, it was run down with old and stained sofa cussions, dripping taps, old creaking bed and overall messy appearance. The bathroom was appalling with a bath tub that had a broom stick siliconed to the gap between tub and wall to try and prevent water from dripping down to the wooden floor. Who has wooden floor in the bathroom??

So, poor standard in the whole unit.
There's no way you can walk to Princes St/Royal Mile in 5 min so the add is misleading.
Overall, I wouldn't rent it again and it's a shame because with some TLC this appartment could become really nice.

Very good experience at the apartment. It is located in a very interesting for those who prefer accommodations with history, quaint and different old building.
Very well located, you can catch the bus at the airport and takes you directly to the door. On the same stop you can catch bus to the center which is a couple of stops, or the port is also very close. The surrounding area has all services you need, pharmacy, supermarket.
We have been a family of four adults and a baby and was very comfortable.
Annette handles everything very easy, leaving instructions and suggestions to facilitate both stay in the apartment as enjoy the city.
We recommend it!
